the patch on this page works on all platforms:

    http://effbot.org/zone/pil-errata-114.htm

you might have misinterpreted the comment; it was a OS X-specific change that
broke the script (under certain conditions), but the script is equally broken on all
platforms that happens to have freetype but not tk.

the gcc options are determined by the Python setup procedure, so it looks like
you've built Python on one machine, and is trying to build PIL on a machine that
has a different (older?) version of gcc.

make sure you're using the gcc version shipped with FC2 (or a later version),
or see Jim's mail for a workaround.
